WaveComBE MSCA-ITN-EID

WAVECOMBE pursues to optimize the dense deployment of massive MIMO mmW SCs, building structures and the RF properties of BEs for providing cost-effective ubiquitous very-highrate coverage in 3D BEs (outdoors and indoors).
The goal of the WaveComBE project is to research three key technologies for a faster and better wireless and mobile internet:
1. The first technology is the antenna design for mmWave communication. The theory behind this so-called massive MIMO antenna design is well understood. But there is little known about the real performance of this new types of antenna optimised for mmWave communication.
2. A second research item is a better understanding of how the mmWave propagation is influenced by rain, snow, but also the human body and common building materials.
3. The last research topic relates to how to optimally deploy mmWave networks in built environments, taking into account antenna and propagation characteristics
